"Roused by the lash of his own stubborn tail our lion now will foreign foes assail"

- John Dryden

About this Quote

This quote by John Dryden is a metaphor for an individual or group of individuals who have actually been pressed to their limits and are now all set to combat back. The lion is a symbol of strength and courage, and the "lash of his own persistent tail" is a metaphor for the individual or group being pushed to their limitations. The lion is now ready to eliminate back against any foreign enemies that might come their way. This quote is a reminder that when we are pressed to our limitations, we can find the strength and courage to combat back and defend ourselves. It is a pointer that we should never quit which we should always make every effort to be the best version of ourselves. It is a suggestion that we must never ever let anyone press us around which we need to always defend what our company believe in.
